Brace for overdose of cute

 

You can see Japan’s AKB48 and all six of their sister idol groups on the same stage at the Asia Festival coming to Impact Arena on January 27. Bangkok’s BNK48 will be there, of course, and so will JKT48 from Jakarta, MNL48 from Manila, SN48 from Shanghai, TPE48 from Taipei and SGO48 from Saigon.

 

The festival opens with an afternoon “High-5” session in which members of all the groups will participate and perform mini-shows. There’ll be a “dress-like-AKB” booth, a costume museum and lots of Asian food. The concert begins at 7pm. Tickets are available at https://bit.ly/2LbedqX.
